 To be honest I was trying to find something from Michael to fit a neat shot I got while out at our Canada Day fireworks. It wasn't a great day for fireworks with a pile of fog rolling in but it worked for this shot.

RIP Michael!

After Challenge Voting:

Well finally it's happened. A top 10 finish. Thank you to voters. I'm excited that I finished with a top 10 in an Expert Challenge while using a shot with editing that would have been allowed in Basic(crop and sharpening)
